Important safety instructions
Please read and keep the information in the attached safety instructions supplied with the
product before you start using the device.
Introduction
Thank You for choosing Lightware UMX-HDMI-140 universal switcher. The product switches
universal 4K video and audio to a HDMI output port. This device was designed for digital
and analog video and audio signals: VGA, YPrPb, DVI, HDMI 1.4 and DP 1.1 with analog
stereo audio from local inputs or embedded 7.1 HBR audio. The unit can also handle HDCP
encryption. Analog signals (both audio and video) are converted into digital format.

Mounting
To mount the switcher Lightware supplies optional accessories for different usage. There are
two kinds of mounting kits with similar xing method. The switcher has two mounting holes with
inner thread on the bottom side. Fasten the device by the screws enclosed with the accessory.
The Under-desk double mounting kit makes easy to mount a single device on any at surface,
e.g. furniture. 1U high rack shelf provides mounting holes for fastening two half-rack or four
quarter-rack sized units. Pocket-sized devices can also be fastened on the shelf. To order
mounting accessories please contact [email protected].
 Using different (e.g. longer) screws may cause damage to the device.
 The switcher is half-rack sized.

Universal switcher concept
UMX-HDMI-140 is an universal audio/video switcher with analog/digital converter and audio
embedder function. The device receives analog (VGA, DVI-A) and digital (DP, HDMI, DVI-D)
video signals and transmits HDMI. Analog audio signals can be received via the 3.5” TRS
(jack) and also the 5-pole Phoenix connector. The device can be controlled via Ethernet,
RS-232 or Infrared and is able to control third-party devices via the RS-232, Ethernet, Infrared
and GPIO interfaces.
